About

Hello! Welcome to the Tree Strings, LLC website!

The Red Wing Guitar Shop!

My name is Brian Stewart, my wife, Brenda and I are the owners of Tree Strings, LLC; the premier guitar shop here in Red Wing, Minnesota. We do all manner of guitar repair, set-up, customization, and offer both tube and solid state amplifier repair. I have an A.A.S. degree in Electronic Music Technology from Minnesota State College Southeast and a degree in Guitar Repair and Building. So, if your guitar has a crack, buzz, busted headstock, or any other ailment, stop in to The Red Wing guitar shop, Tree Strings!

On this website you will find pages with my repair rates, pictures of jobs I’ve worked on (or am working on), contact info and a variety of other useful information on fretted instruments. You’ll also find my store! I have both a brick and mortar location and an online store through Reverb. While I mainly work on guitars (both acoustic & electric), I have also repaired banjos, mandolins, ukuleles & a bouzouki or two. Prior to Tree Strings, I built folk harps for 16 years at Hobgoblin. I moved to Red Wing for the guitar repair and electronics programs and loved the area! There are so many trout streams within driving distance and a supportive arts community. I met my wife here and now have a great family! Music is a part of our lives every day and we want others to have the same opportunity.
